以下是引用hornololo在2008-8-11 12:21:00的发言:给个C可以削弱的理由: 1.较早的era有800种生物,气候大变,变热,所有生物都没绝种 2.气候又大变,这次变冷,还是一样,所有生物都没绝种 3.END OF THE ERA,气候又大变,这次死了很多, 这样还能推出气候是造成了大规模的动物绝迹的原因吗? 个人认为,C 我也支持C! 第一句话,the wave of species extinctions that occurred in North America about 11,000 years ago, at the end of the Pleistocene era,Martin的理论也许不对,但是谁都没有反对灭绝潮发生在end of P这个事实。那么如果发现climatic change在end of P之前,就质疑Krech的理论——为什么之前没有灭绝而要到后期才灭绝?而且在后面又强调了Krech asserting that widespread climatic change did indeed occur at the end of the Pleistocene. 而B,定位Nor were extinctions confined to large animals: small animals, plants, and insects disappeared, presumably not all through human consumption. 关键是presumably这个词,LONGMAN的解释是【used to say that you think something is probably true,It's raining, which presumably means that your football match will be cancelled.】,之后not all部分否定,表达了Krech认为并非所有的这些物种都被人类消耗掉了,他自己认为(1)这些物种是被人类消耗了一些,(2)这些物种灭绝了。那么请问,新发现说人类消耗同时这些东西灭绝了,对其有何削弱呢?
